This microwave works well and doesn't have an extremely loud bell like some microwaves I've owned. GE stands by their products and replaced the first one I owned when the magnetron went out. They delivered a brand new unit and my warranty started over with the new installation date. I will continue to buy GE.

Comments about GE Stainless Steel Countertop Microwave Oven:
I don't like when you reheat something and you check to see if your plate is warm, you can't just hit start and have the timer pick up where it left off. The timer needs to be cleared out and you need to start reheating your plate from the beginning. Also, I don't like that it doesn't show you a time when you are reheating. Other than that, no complaints.

Very powerful and consistent oven. Only problem I've had is the light bulb burned out within 1 month of purchase. Unfortunately, this same light bulb, is NOT serviceable by the consumer. It has to be replaced by a technician.
Love the microwave!

We bought the microwave in June 2014 and very satisfied with it. The various temp ranges are perfect for reheating, defrosting, etc. stainless cleans up nicely.

Pow Gloves Ozone Glove
Decent Gloves
These gloves are really cool lookin but they are a lil on the thin side...i had to wear liners underneath them to make them warmer. And even then i had to occasionally swing my arms around to keep the blood flowin in my hands. They were no problem actually going down the mountain cuz my arms were danglin at my side. I really like them but i'd like im better if they were better insulated. Absoulutly perfect for spring days tho!!! Satisfied with the purchase.

I am a supervisor of a juvenile community garden where teens work off their fines for non-violent offenses--like traffic tickets or shoplifting (instead of having their parents pull out their checkbook to pay the fine for them). I'm always wanting ideas from other gardeners to SPARK the kids' interest in gardening. After all they will be the future caretakers of our earth. All of our vegetables that are harvested go to a local food bank. It's a great program, but my city and just ONE other city in the big state of TX have this juvenile community garden program. Remember that these kids don't want to be there in the first place!
Also, I'd like everyone who reads this message to find out if this program would work in your own city. And if not, why? |

Make it into a market, so they grow and sell vegetables, and they can use the money to improve the community centre, buy a pool table, build a skateboard park, something like that. Once they have bought a pool table (eg) they can use it when they want. Tell them and show them that good homegrown veggies are gonna make them healthier and stronger than that stuff you get from Maccas or the supermarket. And let them taste tomatoes or peas straight from the vine, hmmmmmmm.... yum....Boys like to show off and be strong, let them do the digging and hard work, Girls will like to nurture little seedlings and grow them up to be strong (that is sexist, but it does make sense to the kids) Smart kids can help with the accounting, and working out what prices to charge and how much profit can be made... so #1 have a goal #2 make plans to meet that goal, using whatever skills the kids have #3 work thru your plan until they start to see their goals being reached Then they will understand the whole system and hopefully help you work towards it. |

text: The attached picture is of 200 grain, .35 Rem and 170 grain, 30-30 Win SPCL core lokt bullets. I have a Winchester 94, 30-30 and a friend has a 35 cal Marlin 336. Ammo that I've used in the past was Winchester "150 grain power-point (S.P.)" flat nose, but these bullets for reloading seem to be in short supply recently. I've just purchased the 170 gr 30-30 core lokt bullets but after reading of concerns about potential tubular magazine explosions I'm reluctant to load and fire the 30-30 rounds because of the hard lead round nose of the Core lokt ammo. We have fired the 35 cal Marlin OK, and that round appears to be a favorite for southeastern hunters, but the radius of the nose, although similar, is much smaller on the 30-30. I realize that I can load two at a time, one in the chamber and one in the magazine, but that defeats the purpose of the tubular magazine. Any experience or thoughts with this 30-30 core lokt round in a tubular magazine would be appreciated.

"Great Product"
This is a great product and I have used it for my OTTB during stressful times like the fireworks on 4th of July. She does great with this product and I would definitely recommend it.
"My mare is extremely anxious and is the type of horse that as soon as shes in a trailer shes pooring with sweat from being stressed out and this kept her calm from a HUGE trip from Missouri to Texas she was calm no sweating and wasnt acting ""doped up"". It works amazing I'd recommend it to anyone!"

- SERVINGS: Makes 1 Drink
To commemorate his 2008 guest-bartending stint at Drink in Boston, mixologist Ryan Fitzgerald concocted this aromatic cocktail. He wanted to include a dash of flavor from his hometown San Francisco in the mix, so he rinsed the glass with Fernet-Branca, the city's unofficial favorite spirit. "It adds a nice saffron aroma."
- 1/4 ounce Fernet-Branca (bitter Italian digestif)
- Ice
- 1 1/2 ounces London dry gin
- 1/2 ounce yellow Chartreuse
- 1/2 ounce apricot liqueur
- 3/4 ounce fresh lime juice
- 1/4 ounce agave nectar
- Rinse a coupe with the Fernet-Branca; discard the excess. Fill a cocktail shaker with ice. Add the remaining ingredients and shake well. Fine strain into the coupe.

While rumours have circulated since February that Ubisoft will publish a game tie-in to the Expendables 2, the game now appears to be a certainty, if the Australian Classification Board is anything to go by.
In a post made by the board overnight, the game was rated MA15+. The listing also alludes to a multiplayer element.
This follows a report by NowGamer in February, claiming the existence of a document that makes reference to Ubisoft and several characters in the film.
The Expendables 2 is a forthcoming action film written by and starring Sylvester Stallone, with Chuck Norris and Jean-Claude Van Damme also featuring in the ensemble cast. It's a big, dumb homage to 1980s action films, so its video game adaptation always seemed inevitable.
We've contacted Ubisoft for more details.
While film tie-ins are usually disastrous (with a few notable exceptions), could this actually be brilliant?

Justin Bieber, Oscar Contender?
FOX News reports that the "Baby" singer has made the list of potential nominees for the Original Song category for next year's Academy Awards. The Biebs landed on the list for "Never Say Never," his collaboration with Jaden Smith, which appeared in this year's remake of The Karate Kid. (Smith also starred in the movie.)
The 16-year-old singer/heartthrob will be facing off against 40 other potential nominees, including "Welcome to Burlesque" (from the Christina Aguilera/Cher movie Burlesque), "Alice" (from Alice in Wonderland), and "Eclipse: All Yours" (from The Twilight Saga: Eclipse).
The Music Branch of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences will review movie clips from each song on January 6, and the actual nominations will be announced on January 25. The 83rd annual Academy Awards will take place on February 27, 2011.
Do you think Bieber deserves an Oscar for "Never Say Never"? Let us know in the comments section—after listening to the song below:

Ban Algeria from the world cup
We can not express our deepest sympathies for the Egyptians that were hurt and brutalized in Sudan on November 18. The Algerians acted barbarically after their win and crossed the line as one of the considered Arab nation. The FIFA association must implement some type of penalties to show guidelines of fair play in and outside the field. FIFA is currently reviewing all of the reports and documentation related to the Egypt-Algeria match. Until this process has been finalised, FIFA will not be able to make any comment or provide details on this procedure. FIFA needs to be able to establish all of the facts of the situation. In the meantime, we will not wait and watch will happen next. we have to act and show these people that we will not leave our people behind and that we are with them all they way.

I know there are a lot of people out there who are not fans of Taurus. That's ok. I own a few and I have never had a problem with any of mine. But I am interested in the 24/7 pistol as a first handgun for my oldest son. He turns 18 in a month or so and I would like to find a handgun for him without breaking the bank.
I am also considering a PT92, as I own one of those but it is almost 20 years old now and I am not sure Taurus has the same quality that they used to have.
Any opinions are welcome. I just want to hear some. Also if anyone has any opinions for a gun for him that isn't too pricey, I'd like to hear them as well.

Kouandjio pre-draft visit finalizes Bills list at 29
by Joe Buscaglia
posted Apr 25 2014 5:07PM
Every single year each team in the National Football League is allowed to welcome in 30 college prospects to their facilities for official pre-draft visits. The Bills have filled up their 30 most years, but it appears 2014 won't be one of them.
Still with two official pre-draft visits remaining, the Bills elected to use only one of those two slots. They announced on Friday that Alabama offensive tackle Cyrus Kouandjio was visiting the team, making him player number 29.
Speaking at the annual draft luncheon, GM Doug Whaley said they would likely just leave the final pre-draft visit open, seeing as how the final day to conduct visits is Sunday. That isn't a self-restriction, that is an order mandated by the NFL.
Kouandjio is an intriguing prospect that was once considered as a top 10 to 15 type of talent available in the draft. Following some reports about how his knees tested out, Kouandjio's stock took a bit of a tumble in the past few months and now is projected as a fringe first-round pick. The 6-foot-7, 322-pound offensive tackle started in 26 games over the past two seasons for the Crimson Tide.
With his visit, the Bills visit list included six running backs, four wide receivers, three tight ends, five offensive tackles, one interior lineman, one defensive end, three linebackers and six cornerbacks. For the
full list of the players that visited, click here.

ok, so i've been told that R22 offers better cooling than 410A. Also, there are still R22 units being shipped "dry", and filled on-site. The end date for these units is 2025. Though, most contractors want to go with the 410A. I recently replaced 1 zone with 410A, and there is a noticeable difference vs. my old unit. Any thoughts?
Also, how high a SEER rating is really necessary? Thanks. |

SEER rating? I think 13 is what's out there now. SEER is a measure of efficiency. Higher efficiency means lower power bills. So a simple question would be, how low do you want your power bills to be? The problem is, if you look at pricing, each point of additional SEER costs more and more per point in dollars. In my opinion (not based in fact), the sweet spot is around 15/16. |
Who told you R22 condensers offer better cooling than 410A condensers? Did they explain what they mean by "better". There is no SEER rating which is necessary. In very hot climates it may be cost effective to spend additional money of a more efficient unit. Buying an AC condenser solely on its SEER rating is equivalent to buying a car based on its miles per gallon rating. It is one factor to consider, but certainly not the most important. In both cases your mileage (electricity savings) will vary. |
thanks for your replies. An a/c technician said, based on his years of experience, that the recent installs he's done with 410A have resulted in lots of complaints from customers that don't feel their homes are as cool as when they had R22 based cooling units. Personally, having replaced 1 zone in my home last summer with 410A, I have to agree. The other zone in my home is powered with a R22 condenser and there is clearly a difference in cooling. I know not to purchase a condenser solely on its SEER. Energy efficiency will be effected by other home factors, like insulation, windows, etc. But, since the higher the SEER, the higher the cost, I don't want to overbuy. |
Is the new 410A unit the same size as the R22 unit it replaced? If it is, then you most likely have an installation problem. The actuall delivered BTUs of the unit may vary as much as 5% over their nomimal rating, but I don't think it is enough that you would notice it. I have replaced R22 condensers in my home with 410A units. The cooling performance is better with the new units. I have heard no compliants from my neighbors who have also done replacements. The 410A refrigerant operates at higher pressures. A proper installation is key to correct operation. In addition the higher efficienty equipment has more items which need to be set up properly. Some old techs may not have the new skills on how to do it properly. |

I dropped from a r22 3.5 ton builders grade heat pump to a 3 ton r410a and sealed all of my ducts and fixed sizing issues and its 98 degrees outside and the stat is set and maintaining 76 degrees with 45% humidity. 15.5 seer with txv compared to a 13 seer piston orifice with horribly leaky ducts. Sealing the ducts is where I spent the least amount of money and save the most. |

It seems that almost all of the replacement units i've changed out this year have been the Dry units. People in my area of the country are pretty strapped for cash and a dry unit is a perfect solution to get them up and cooling. They don't come with a good warranty (5 years), compaired to the 410A York equipment i install (10 years inside & out) but like i said, it gets them going. The 410A equipment we install seems to actually be cooling better than than the 22 systems. I think alot of it has to do with the X13 or the vari-spd blowers that are usually matched with them. Also, we've been taking more time in our ductwork assembly, making sure that we have no air leakage. I think overall, people are more aware of what it cost to operate their a/c and if they can afford a full upgrade, it would be to their advantage. |

Robert Morris Rugby has taken great strides as a club sport organization recently. In the Fall of 2013, the Rugby team had a very successful season, taking second place in the Three Rivers Rugby Conference. The championship game was against the talented Franciscan Barons team in Stuebenville Ohio. Competition was fierce and the loss was in the final seconds 20-17. Thus denying RMU there first DIII sweet 16 birth. The club itself had its beginnings in 1992, it has matched the growth and popularity of rugby across the nation. This spring, the team took a trip to play in the 32nd annual "Nash Bash" tournament located in Nashville, TN. With two major victories the club showed that it can compete anywhere it travels. With the newly formed Three River's Rugby Conference and the growing success of the team, the outlook for the organization is very optimistic.

Elliott Fausz announces candidacy for VA-4 Congressional District
Elliott G. Fausz (D) is announcing his candidacy to challenge Congressman Randy Forbes (R-4) for Virginia's 4th Congressional District seat. According to his supporters, he will be an advocate for the district and a leader in the House of Representatives."For too long, the people of the 4th District have been under represented by Congressman Forbes, who focuses his attention on special interests," says Mr. Fausz. "It's time we put petty politics aside and move America forward with 21st century leadership."
Mr. Fausz is a longtime resident of Chester, VA, where he manages day-to-day operations of his family's local newspaper, the Village News. Fausz received a Bachelors degree in political science from Virginia Commonwealth University and continued his studies for a Master of Business Administration at VCU. During his studies, Fausz traveled to over 25 countries where he studied various cultures and languages, including Chinese and Spanish. Recently, he spent time in both Finland and Greece consulting with startup companies on how to bring their products to market in America.
Fausz serves as President of the Chester Community Association, a civic organization that promotes smart growth and community events. Also, he is the chairman and a founding member of the Chesterfield County Twinning Association, which connects Gravesham, England, and Chesterfield for purpose of cultural exchange.
Fausz's experience has given him a unique set of skills that will enable him to be a powerful voice and advocate for Virginia's 4th Congressional District. Fausz vows to fight for every citizen across the 4th district and the country by putting constituents first.
"I will find success by listening to the constituents of the 4th District and putting their interests a head of K Street lobbyists," says Fausz. "There is a lot to be done in Washington, and as long as we keep the residents of the 4th District in mind, we can overcome any obstacles that are standing in our way."
Fausz continued by emphasizing the importance of cleaning up the Veterans Administration, reforming the student loan system, balancing the budget, developing clean energy and high-tech jobs, and defending America's boarders without encroaching on privacy.

• Radiance Magazine, the flagship publication of fat feminism, chronicles the history of the feminist Fat Underground, which was active in the 1970s. "The Fat Underground employed slashing rhetoric," reports the magazine with apparent approbation. "Doctors are the enemy. Weight loss is genocide." Comparing the diet industry to Hitler's regime might sound a touch extreme, but Radiance adds that "mainstream-sympathetic academics . . . ultimately came to adopt much of the Fat Underground's underlying logic as their own."
These kinds of comments and arguments seem to be the rule, not the exception. Fat-acceptance advocates and fat feminists will fight for equality no matter what, the entire mainstream medical establishment be damned. And a hallmark of that fight is opposition to dieting and weight loss. They argue that your weight has nothing to do with your health, and that telling overweight and obese people to slim down is tantamount to malpractice.
Here's why this is a problem: Rights come in two forms, natural rights and legal rights. Natural rights are inborn — life, liberty, and property/the pursuit of happiness. We all have them; they come from Nature and Nature's God, as the Framers put it, and government's responsibility is to protect them. Legal rights exist because of the law. In America, I have a legal right to the shoes that I bought with my own money. I can wear them, cut them into little pieces, stick them in my closet, and forget about them, whatever. The right to vote is a legal right (there is no serious argument that all people are born with a natural right to check off a box on a ballot to decide who will lead them). So is the right to marry. Some societies give their members more legal rights than other societies.
There's a lot of debate about how to define rights, and the best way to explore all this is probably in grad school, not in a few paragraphs in an article on the Internet. That said, it's pretty silly to argue that people have a right not to get their feelings hurt. It's equally silly to argue that everyone has a right to pay for only one seat on an airplane, even if he takes up two. And it's even sillier to argue that fat people have the right to safe spaces where skinny people won't invalidate their experiences, and that if they can't find such spaces, they're oppressed victims in need of redress. Now, that's not to say such spaces are a bad idea; it's just to say that they aren't a right inborn in fat people — nor (yet) are they a right granted by law. In America, you have the right to freedom of speech, but you don't have the right to a supportive group of non-judgmental listeners who will never call you out. If you have such a group, wonderful. But it's a privilege or a blessing, not a right.
As long as progressives can with impunity erode and broaden the definition of the word "right," they'll be able to justify an ever-increasing scope of government intervention. The more rights you have, the more government you need to protect them. The fat-acceptance movement, like most progressives, seems to assume that you have a right to a comfortable, pleasant, judgment-free life. You don't. You have the rights to say what you want, to spend your own money, to practice the religion of your choice (or no religion), to buy a gun, etc. But no one is violating your rights by giving you the stink-eye if you take up two seats in a bus.

Orillia, ON – With just one race remaining in the 10 event Sunset Speedway Super Series, Taylor Holdaway is in the thick of the championship hunt in the Limited Late Model division.
Hot off three straight top-three finishes the Orillia, Ontario driver is 4th overall, just 22 points behind point leader Dwayne Baker and a single point out of the top three.
"We have had a really strong couple of weeks leading up to the end of the season and have been running very consistent" said Holdaway. "With two top 3's in the previous two weeks we were really hoping for a strong run to lead us into the final points night. We unloaded fast off the truck last Saturday night and battled to a second place finish" he added.
The Holdaway Motorsports team has had some help dialing in the car over this stretch. "I have to thank Scott Wylie from New York. He's been here helping us dial the car in".
Although the final night of points racing is the main focus for Holdaway and his team they are also making plans for the post-season.
"I am looking forward to fielding a second car for the playoff season" said Holdaway. "We will get our scheduled started with the 125 lap Limited Late Model show at Sunset on September 18th".
Holdaway's bid for the 2014 Sunset Speedway championship will take place at Sunset Speedway in Innisfil, Ontario on Saturday, September 13th. Race time is 4:30pm.
Holdaway Motorsports would like to thank ImageFactor.ca Motorsports Designs, Castrol Motor Oil, Wix Filters, OntarioOval.com, Holdaway Automotive, Sunshine Super Wash Orillia, BG Products and Thor Motors Orillia for their support in 2014.

The implication has always been that U.S. forces just need to hold on a little while longer for things to get better.

[Larry King Live, 5/30/05] JOE LIEBERMAN (I-CT): By the end of this year, we will begin to draw down significant numbers of American troops. [Washington Post, 7/7/06] JOHN McCAIN (R-AZ): If you talk to most military experts, weŌĆÖre in a critical and crucial time. WeŌĆÖre either going to lose this thing or win this thing within the next several months.ŌĆØ [Meet The Press, 11/12/06] ZALMAY KHALILZAD: Iraq Prime Minister Nouri Al-Maliki ŌĆ£has a window of a couple months.

Hello all,
I've read quite a few threads and learned a lot in the process but i don't have a definitive answer as far as what is the tallest skinniest tire i can mount on my stock 17" TRD Sport wheels.
I really like the military / safari look and since my tuck is used 90% onroad, i understand the thinner tire will also help me get maybe 1-2 mpg more, which is great.
Based on what i've seen, it seems that 225/75/17 would be my best bet, but does anyone have experience with this tire size? I've seen folks call the 255 pizza cutters, what does that make the 225?
I've got a 2" lift all around.
Thanks in advance to everyone who can help a fellow member out.

Cannabis Time Capsule 1933: Meet the father of American Prohibition
Today in Cannabis Time Capsule, we'd like to introduce you to the Father of American Prohibition, Richard Pearson Hobson. You can thank him for such things as marijuana prohibition, the war on drugs and America's failed attempt at making alcohol illegal in the 1920s.Richard Pearson Hobson.
In this 1933 article from the Steamboat Pilot, Hobson outlines his plan for ridding the nation of dope by 1963. That plan failed, which seemed to be the story of his life.
See also: Cannabis Time Capsule 1921: American Legion goes to war on drugs
And now, some background. Hobson became famous for being captured during the Spanish-American War after unsuccessfully trying to block up a harbor by sinking his own ship. He was captured, imprisoned in Cuba and became a propaganda tool, with all sorts of fake stories about his bravery circulating along with photos of the guy and his most-amazing facial hair. He was later released, returning home to a hero's welcome and becoming a popular speaker. He was also apparently pretty smooth with the ladies, who all bought into the stories of his taking on a suicide mission and loved to be seen smooching with him.
Before he was thrust into the public eye, he was a kiss-ass snitch. His cohorts in the Naval Academy thought he was a complete tool because of his disdain for their tobacco and alcohol use. According to one account from a fellow shipmen found in a 1979 American Heritage Magazine piece:
"Someone who knew him as a boy in the Alabama cotton country, where Hobson had been born in 1870, remembered him as 'gravefaced'. His manner was stiff and formal; his conversation, almost comically stilted.' When he entered the United States Naval Academy, he quickly became a pariah by conscientiously reporting the misdemeanors of his classmates. Only one man is said to have spoken with him for two entire years. But when his fellow midshipmen offered to make it up, Hobson refused; he had, he said, gotten along perfectly well without them."
In his speeches, Hobson would talk about the scientific fact that alcohol would literally drown the "higher nature" part at the top of your brain with vapors and, over time, would make the user into, basically, an ape. He also blamed booze for the fall of ancient society as we know it:
"Alcohol tears down the top part of the brain, so that every time a man drinks, will power declines. In destroying the seat of the will power, alcohol destroys the seat of the moral senses, and of the spiritual nature, the recognition of right and wrong, the consciousness of God and of duty and of brotherly love and of self-sacrifice. It is this same lowering of the average citizen's character in the past that entailed the overthrow of the liberties of Greece and Rome and other Republics."Not only that, but Hobson was profoundly racist (as were his friends in the KKK, which was also a hugesupporter of prohibition). Here's just a sample, taken from a 1914 speech:
"Liquor promptly degenerates the red man, throws him back into savagery. It will promptly put a tribe on the war path."And:
"Liquor will actually make a brute out of a negro, causing him to commit unnatural crimes.... The effect is the same on the white man, though the white man being further evolved it takes longer time to reduce him to the same level."His take on pot likely wasn't all that different. By August of 1933, with the failure of alcohol prohibition apparent (it was repealed in December of 1933), Hobson had moved on to the war on drugs -- which we now all recognize as another of Hobson's complete failures.

PETA Gives Honey Boo Boo 'Not a Nugget' Power
Honey Boo Boo has found something else that makes her holla: her new companion chicken. Alana Thompson's mother says that HBB and her BFF (best fowl friend) are practically inseparable.
Why, then, would the pint-sized reality star name her chicken Nugget? PETA wrote to Honey Boo Boo asking her to change Nugget's name to "Not a Nugget," after our youth outreach mascot, to honor her companion as a friend, not food.
"As I'm sure you are learning from your chicken, chickens are smart, interesting animals with personalities of their own," our letter reads. "Changing Nugget's name to 'Not a Nugget' will let your fans know that they should be nice to chickens by not eating them."
But even if Honey Boo Boo "redneckognizes" that chickens are better as family members than value meals, that doesn't mean that she would have to give up her "chicken-nugget power." PETA is also sending the pageant queen our "I Am Not a Nugget" T-shirt and Gardein's faux-chicken tenders. Since meat-free nuggets have all the protein with none of the cholesterol, they'll give her more energy than Go Go Juice. And not eating chickens might earn her a whole new flock of fans.
If a dolla will make Honey Boo Boo holla, maybe a Gardein nugget will make her wanna hug it? (Note to June: Gardein also puts out good coupons.)

Sep 4th 2008 3:04AM I guess 10-mans will have shorter reset timers. Just like it is now with HC vs raid or ZA vs other T5 instances. Another guess is 2-day reset timer for HCs.
Another guess. The difference between 10-man and 25 man will be like HC and Kara now with hardest heroics being harder than middle Kara. It will be like first 10 man boss as difficult as first 25 man boss, last 10 man boss as hard as middle 25 man boss.

I saw in a book some time back and do not have the book, it showed a bamoo which acted like a ground cover. It only got about 3' tall or so.
Was I dreaming? A little help....please. |

Yes, it is true. They are in the Pleioblastus family. I have 4 different varities. They are runners. I have a few in the ground but I have a barrier to stop them from going into a certain area. The rest are in pots. |
So do you have any pictures of them? I am planning on making beds for them as we have rock about 10" to 12" below the surface. I will be digging out and pouring into the rock and raising the bed. Thank you. |
- Posted by fluffy_bamboo Zone 9 (My Page) on Sat, May 12, 07 at 16:07
If you search from google.com, look up "Pleioblastus Bamboo", Dwarf or Pgymy Bamboo, it will give you all kinds of photo's and information. |

There is a list of bamboos shorter than 3 feet tall at the following link. Ignore the unknown heights "U". They could be any height. Bill |
Here is a link that might be useful: Short bamboo
Thanks Bill thats a great resource. |

Don't feel sorry. I bought one from them also and it reverted. Like the 3 striped blooms I got but and thinking it is Hocus Pocus because Abracadabra is suppose to to stable and the flowers never got to hybrid tea size. |
That's still a very pretty and interesting looking rose. I like the colors of it. |
- Posted by canadian_rose zone 3a (My Page) on Thu, Jun 5, 08 at 3:01
I've always rose-lusted after Abracadabra!! Such a beautiful stripe - I think it's the MOST beautiful stripe. Wish I could grow it here! Thanks for the look! Carol |
- Posted by bonsaimaster1 none (firstname.lastname@example.com) on Wed, Mar 5, 14 at 15:46
i know it has been a long time since this post started but i was wondering if you still had the abracadabra rose, and if so would be willing to sell it to me or root me up some cuttings. Ive looked everywhere and you can't find these anymore. Please contact me back asap when you get this! my email is email@example.com |
Bonsaimaster1, BethNorCal, who has been starting all the alphabet threads on right now has Abracadabra. She also has Simsalabim which seems to be very similar. You might ask Beth if she could spare a cutting for you. Diane |
Bonsai, check out Beth's letter A roses, and letter S part II roses for good pics of Abra and Simsal. Diane |
Abrakadabra (Kordes) is geneticaly more stable then Hocus-Pocus, but very often the red color (from Black Magic) overwhelms the yellow. |
Love the second of your photos, neptune. |
bonsaimaster1, Kordes don't offer Abrakadabra any longer. You can order it from Florov Rose Nursery. Ask about delivery cost and the phyto certificate. http://www.florov.com/magazin?page=shop.browse&category_id=6 |

I am about at the end of my wine kit and about ready to bottle. When I did the degassing/stabilizing/clear step about 10 days ago, the wine still tasted a little too tart. I just took a gravity reading today, it's at 0.994, quite clear, and tasted pretty good. I did this on Jan 8, so it's been about 28 days. This is a pino grisio, looks like I will be bottling this in the next few days finally
*Thumbs up*
We tried our first bottle last night, and it was pretty good. Bottled it on the 7th, and put 1 bottle in the fridge. As far as i'm concerned, this was just as good as any $5 - $20 bottle i've tried. We will try 1 bottle a week probably and see if it gets even better as it ages.
jflongo....what was the name of the kit? And congrats on what seems to be a smashing success!

Turkey is the bridge between the Orient and the Occident. Once the core of the might Byzantine Empire and later of the great Islamic Ottoman Empire, it has always played a major role in the history of the world. A country of mountain ranges, ruggedly beautiful coastlines and blessed by year-round sunshine, it promises an escape from the ordinary.
Istanbul is the only city in the world that rests on two continents; Europe, where you will discover the old city and Asia, which is modern and stylish. Set in a spectacular setting of seven hills and surrounded by water on three sides, Istanbul is truly magnificent. Domes, cupolas and minarets dominate the skyline. The Sultan Ahmed "Blue" Mosque is notable for its six exquisitely slender minarets and cascade of domes. Where ever you look there are wonderful ruins, or old palaces, ancient churches and mosques, hammans (bathhouses) and colourful bazaars, of which the Grand Bazaar with its unbelievable choice of goods.
Three hour's drive away is Bursa, the old capital of Turkey which lies at foothills of Mount Olympos and close to the sea of Marmara. It is known for mineral-rich hot theremal baths, ancient mosques, bazaars – and the ski resort of Uludag. Nearby Yalova is an ancient port with quaint villages and enticing beaches.
The moonscaped region of Cappadocia, southeast of Ankara, is most famous for unique topography - the "fairy chimneys ", the towering cone-like formations of otherworldly beauty. Past cultures have dug into them to create dwellings, castles (like Uchisar) and even entire underground cities, used as hiding places by early Christians. Pamakule meaning "cotton castle" in Turkish is one of Turkey's top attractions and a precious World Heritage site with its cotton-look terraces formed by the deposited minerals. The underground waters once gave life to the ancient city of Hierapolis and are scientifically proven to cure many diseases. Nearby Antalya mixes historical beauty, azure seas and lush mountains with countries hippest nightspots and a rapidly developing art scene.
The Southeast of Turkey is a region with strong cultures, traditions and historical importance. A few days exploration will give a great taste of the region's attractions. With a dramatic hillside setting, beautiful golden-stone buildings, mosques, churches and boutique hotels, the region's capital Mardin has a lot to offer. Visit exotic Sanli Urfa with its true Middle Eastern flavor. In the spiritual Urfa - the "City of Prophets" - there are traditional Middle Eastern houses built around courtyards. People are extremely friendly, and the bazaar is great. Oludeniz meaning Dead Sea in Turkish features on countless Turkish travel posters and is one of Turkey's iconic sights especially in summer time. It is also located near the start of the Lycian Way walking trail. It is regarded as one of the best places in the world to paraglide due to its unique panoramic views, and Mount Babadağ's exceptional height.
Konya is the birthplace of Whirling Dervishes. Mevlâna Museum is one of Konya's most distinctive sights. After the Topkapi Palace in Istanbul, it is one of Turkey's most visited attractions. Konya's lamb-centric cuisine is superb as well. Kuşadasi is a resort town on Turkey's Aegean coast. Becoming a modern-European looking town, Kusadasi has a lot of beaches, bars and cafes near the sea front.Turkey's most culturally conservative city.

The certified stylists at Lashful frame eyes with mink lashes to achieve looks ranging from elegant to seductive. Their uncanny attention to detail comes in handy during extension applications, when they meticulously attach each artificial lash to a real one to achieve the most natural look possible. Sensitive eyes need not wince in fear, as the adhesive material with which they apply lashes is specially formulated to not perturb the eye with harsh irritants or teasing optical illusions. The stylists also dip natural lashes in a semipermanent tint that—much like the extensions—gives eyes the glamorous look of freshly applied mascara.
Stress can arrive unannounced on weekdays or weekends, which is why Ridgewood European Day Spa keeps its doors open seven days a week. Since 1990, the spa's menu has refreshed minds and bodies with services such as relaxing Swedish massages, microdermabrasion treatments that reduce signs of aging, and seaweed body wraps that disguise clients as giant pieces of sushi. Clients who can't decide on just one treatment can schedule one of Ridgewood's spa packages.
Panico Salon & Spa was named the best salon in New Jersey by Beauty Entertainment magazine, but the award-winning team's services go well beyond hairstyling. Massage services include Swedish, deep tissue, and hot stone modalities, and other treatments include fruit-scented body scrubs and a wide range of healing facials and skincare. The salon prides itself in being an education based teaching salon. It provides continuous education to its staff via a variety of resources such as an intern training academy as well as an educator development program.
Inside this full-service spa, hair, skin, and nails are fawned over with equal amounts of attention and care. Cuts, coloring, and perms deftly rectify tangled and overgrown hairdos, whereas facials coax glowing tones from the skin with assistance from the Biodroga skincare line. To accentuate stylish new 'dos and dewy cheeks, technicians affix lash extensions to clients' eyes and set bodies to full bathing-suit mode with Chocolate Sun organic airbrush tanning—who have been featured on The Today Show. Spirits are also rallied thanks to a roster of Swedish, deep-tissue, and foot massages, which put mind and body back into balance by prying stress and tension from muscles and lodged quarters from ears.
An oasis of pampering and relaxation, Exclusive Day Spa offers a wide array of massage modalities, a bevy of aesthetic services, and emotional coaching. The bodywork experts train in massage techniques including Swedish, deep-tissue, and aromatherapy, which soothes the muscles and nostrils alike. Facials and peels cleanse skin and fight the signs of aging, whereas beauty injections and dermal fillers provide more dramatic youth-enhancing results. Their laser skin treatments target fine lines, acne, and rosacea, and laser hair removal and waxing banish unwanted stubble, helping patrons earn the coveted nickname "Smooth Operator."
Belinda Gonzales, an energy worker and licensed massage therapist, combines therapies from different cultures to guide bodies toward total relaxation at Peaceful Retreat Therapeutic Massage. She offers modalities such as anxiety-relieving Swedish and deep-tissue massage. She also performs thai massage, which incorporates yoga-influenced stretches and gentle rocking—like when Mick Jagger quietly sang "Happy" to a restless Keith Richards and his teddy bear. Belinda can further melt away mental stress with aromatherapeutic oils; during reiki therapy, she directs energy toward acupuncture points to balance the energy levels.

"This brine really did produce the moistest and most flavorful turkey that I have ever made. It got 14 unanimous thumbs up! I followed the recipe and only substituted a whole large sliced onion for the dried. It was easy and perfectly seasoned -not at all salty. I did not make the gravy but did use a small amount of the drippings to season my gravy..."

I coordinate Web Accessibility efforts at UC Berkeley, in order to uphold the University of California's commitment to making electronic technologies fully accessible on all campuses.
I also provide operations and development support for Open Berkeley, a custom content management solution built in Drupal, which allows departments to cost-effectively build, manage, and maintain campus websites using a standardized, open-source solution with a UC Berkeley signature.
Outside of my job at UC Berkeley, I work as Blog Director and sit on the Board of Directors for The Bay Bridged, a San Francisco-based nonprofit project, which is recognized nationwide as the leading source for San Francisco Bay Area independent music through an award-winning music blog and podcast series, as well as a series of acclaimed music festival events.
The other stuff: I enjoy music, comedy podcasts, running, cooking, and eating.
